Science Stories fortæller historier om videnskab baseret på nysgerrighed og fascination af viden og indsigt, men vi kan også være kritiske og stille spørgsmål ved veletablerede dogmer. Vi stræber efter at forstå grundlaget for viden og sætte den i perspektiv. Redaktionen er uafhængig og ikke underlagt udefrakommende politiske eller kommercielle interesser.
